Pregnant after a Loss

The ups and downs (intro)

Hi Ladies,

I am the mother of a beautiful 4 year old girl and I am currently 8 weeks pregnant after a loss in May. We had been trying since around March 2014 after stopping birth control. Got pregnant the following month. First U/S was at 10 weeks, and they couldn't find a heartbeat, the baby had not survived past 5 weeks. I miscarried at 11 weeks. And I know one miscarriage is nothing compared to half of what the other ladies on here and other sites have gone through, but one is way more than I thought I could handle. But we are now pregnant again after the loss, and I am freaking out. Every cramp, every break in morning sickness, every little thing happening in my body I am convinced I am going to lose this one too. And now my morning sickness has not been happening in the morning for the last couple days, it is happening in the evening, is that normal? I am just worrying day in and day out that I will lose this baby too. :/ Just thought I would introduce myself! Thanks for reading! :)

Re: The ups and downs (intro)

  • I'm so sorry for your loss but congrats on this pregnancy. PGAL is so hard and all of the feelings you are having are totally normal. If you haven't already, read the mantras at the top of the board, they really help and make you feel like you are not alone. Unfortunately, after a loss pregnancy is totally different and filled with worry but just try to remember it is still a blessing none the less. Just take it day by day and do the best you can. ((Hugs))

  • Congratulations. Welcome to the board. You've come to an excellent place for advice and support.
  • Welcome and congratulations! PGAL is tough, no matter when the loss occurred. Just take each day as they come. The mantras definitely (and still do) help out.
  • Welcome and congrats. Big hugs as you navigate pgal. It can be so scary.

  • Thank you all for the amazing welcome! I have been lurking for a couple of days now, and this board is so amazing! I am still having some trouble believing I am actually pregnant. The MS has not been consistent at all! Some days it is all day and others it is only at night, or none at all. The nightmares keep showing up every night  :( But my next appt is on the 11th of December, so just have to wait a week or so to hear the heartbeat again.

  • I totally hear you on the fear and worry! It's all I can think about since my BFP last week. I will definitely put those mantras in my daily meditation.

    Congrats on your pregnancy and wish you happiness and confidence :)
